Day 216

Friday, August 7, 2015

The Party was held and Dad and Sarah’s Church, Easthaven, up on Whitefish Stage Road.  This is a wide angle view of setting some of it up. A nameless friend of Dad’s, and Dad’s Speed Key.  That is the telegraph key he used when he was a telegrapher from the Northern Pacific Railroad, way back […]

Day 215

Friday, August 7, 2015

The next morning, the day of the party, most of us went to the local iHop for breakfast.  Dad was the only one who wouldn’t look at the camera! From the left front to the back, and from the back right to the front:  The Dailylife Wife, Toots, Debbie, Sarah, Dad, Sherissa, Dezzi, Shawnna*, and […]

Day 214

Friday, August 7, 2015

We headed up to the Flathead Valley for Dad’s 90th Birthday.  With lots of family coming up there we stayed at the KOA.  Lugnut got to ride his new bike around. It was a bigger area than our drive way! A tree out behind Dad’s, in the setting sun. My sisters Debbie and Deyanne. Another […]

Here are my five print entries in the State Fair: I think this one was in Nature…it got Third Place. This was in Wildlife. This was also Wildlife and placed Third.   This got Third in Black and White People. I think this was in Action. Lots of good photos this year! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 209

Tuesday, July 28, 2015

Now for something completely different…. I was driving for the Red Cross to Missoula last Friday, and trying to get back through Bonner on the way home I had to wait! Montana Rail Link occasionally runs and engine and cars into the old plywood plant in Bonner.  They store logs and chips there. The Fireman […]

Day 201

Tuesday, July 21, 2015

I drove a new model Ford Escape to Idaho Falls for Avis.  This sure is a lot different than the Escape I drove for the Government! This is the center of the dash in front of the driver.  Note the little car image and the shining headlights and tail lights.  This meant you actually had […]

Day 200

Tuesday, July 21, 2015

I drove a car to Idaho Falls on Sunday for Avis.  We ate at Subway.  We usually do…I wonder if Avis is a subsidiary…naw, I would think we’d get a discount… A Steak and Cheese (provolone and pepper jack!), toasted! ~Curtis in Idaho Falls!  {!-{>

Day 199

Friday, July 17, 2015

I have been driving blood around the State as a volunteer for the Red Cross.  This was the (I think…) 2012 Dodge Caravan on 9 April this year.  There are no tenths on the odometer…this was one of two vans.  The other had over 300,000 miles, and died while I was in Hawai’i.  This one […]

Day 195

Saturday, July 11, 2015

I got to drive a Fiat 500L the other day.  An interesting little car.  It was very peppy, handled nice, and was very quiet.  It was a lot roomier than I expected, too!  This is a view of the front windshield and the side…vent?*…windows and the very flat windshield and deep dash that made it […]

Day 183

Wednesday, July 1, 2015

Another blast from the past! The Dailylife Daughter #1 and her hubby were cleaning out my garage looking for garage sale items, and I was doing some sorting, when I found a LOT of photos I had thought lost. Here are just a few. The date on these photos is Aug 69, but that is […]
